THE IPOD REPAIR SERVICE IN CAPE TOWN IS A JOKE
And by a “joke” I mean it’s “off the charts.” So much so that it’s silly. I tell you what, between Apple products and these guys, life couldn’t be easier. David, the owner of Caprice gave me no option but to attend a party at Caprice on Saturday night last week. And off I went. […]

SETH DROPS PC, ACQUIRES APPLE MACBOOK PRO FROM DIGICAPE
To say that I was the PC poster-boy, would be an understatement. I had a computer from the age of six and, given that I was an only child, I spent an inordinate amount of time in front of the various computers I have had throughout my life. Apart from the “SpectraVideo” and BBC computers […]
